Two-step verification for extra account security

Add an extra layer of protection to your Yahoo account with two-step verification. Two-step verification uses both your password and an extra security code to verify your identity whenever you sign in to your account. If someone other than yourself tries to access your account, even if they guess your password, they still wouldn't be able to get in without using two-step verification.

Two-step verification will only trigger the first time you use your computer or device, unless you've cleared your browser's cache. If you lose your mobile phone, please sign in using a device we recognize.
